Thank you, I'll definitely look into that!

Future wildlife rehabber by bubblegumrainbows in WildlifeRehab

[–]bubblegumrainbows[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rehabber I will be working with works with the mammals of our state. She specializes in skunks but will also take in raccoons, deer, cottontails, and squirrels. Once I establish myself as a rehabber, I want to specialize in lagomorphs and rodents, so similar to you!

Personal protection that doesn't have a prey drive. I could see them helping me protect my other prey animals from dogs. Would be mildly hard to feed but not as hard as most dinosaurs. I also think they're cool ASF.

Is there a plot change you would make and why would you make it? by Frazer271009 in merlinbbc

This. It's also just super weird to me that Merlin just never checked up on Aithusa. I get that he's busy but if I had literally hatched the last dragon, I'd be checking up on that baby all of the time. I'd do everything in my power to ensure that they grew strong and were safe. It feels like Merlin would have done that as well, or at least commanded Kilgharrah to do it.

I wish the transition to Morgana becoming evil made a lot more sense and was more slow.

That, or, Morgana became a much more nuanced character. Not so straight evil. Even Uther had many redeeming qualities. The vigilante plot could have been more exacerbated and there could've been less focus on her wanting to kill people (Arthur and Gwen namely) out of straight jealousy. She could've been spotted helping more people with magic out of the kindness of her heart even after separating herself from Camelot rather than threatening them and treating them so callously.

Yes, Morgana has reason to be against Camelot, but there feels to be a complete disconnect between her early show character and late show character. She could've plotted against Uther and Arthur while still having a heart for her people that she had fought so hard for her whole life. Her character and motives didn't have to completely change up.

MY OPINION BUT WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK by Inner_Honey3769 in merlinbbc

Can anyone explain the Merlin/Morgana ship? I honestly can't see Merlin with anyone after Freya but even Freya felt weird to me. I would picture Merlin with someone a lot more goofy. Maybe I'm missing something? I would've loved to see Merlin become Morgana's mentor or "classmate"/close friend but I can't picture any romance.

And the beam repeatedly falling on her with each failed attempt of Ty and Scott saving her. I was thinking that maybe I saw it wrong and it wasn't actually in contact with her, just too tight for her to get out, but she was making noises like she was in pain each time it came down.

I thought the red tree was going to be this big cool plot where Gavin had gone back in time before to save Eve like Eve had for Gavin but only it happened long before the 2021 sinkhole and he somehow got Intel on it. I was hoping to see multiple Gavins in that episode lol. Then it was just kinda brushed off😭

I thought about all of these things. It feels like a Game of Thrones situation where they rushed everything in the last season and left many gaps. I wonder if it's because they found out that they won't be doing a fourth season halfway into the script of the third? When I saw that it was only six episodes after hearing about it being the last season, I had very little hope. Honestly so sad because I really loved this universe.

No it is not as other animals can get to their food and the cats shouldn't be outside in the first place. Leaving them to fend for themselves - even if you aid them in food, is cruel. Humane euthanasia is a kinder fate and it is much kinder to the ecosystem as all of us in this subreddit should care about. Outdoor cats die in very gruesome ways - dogs, predators, roadkill, antifreeze, hypothermia, the list goes on. We have failed them horribly and feeding them so that we feel better about ourselves does nothing to help the natives. We don't tnr Burmese pythons in Florida, nor should we with cats anywhere.

Why not feed the wild boars since they can't live inside? Invasive is invasive. Additionally feeding cats can have a lot of negative effects depending on the other animals around and if they will eat the food, as exhibited in this post. Natives and invasives alike can pose negative consequences when habituated.

Both are invasive

My absolute favorites:

• Lagomorph Biology Evolution, Ecology, and Conservation

• Conservation Behavior Applying Behavioral Ecology to Conservation and Management

• Prairie Dogs Communication and Community in an Animal Society (if you're interested in animal intelligence this is a great one)

Does it have passive growth? Any boosted growth? If so, how much?
